Integrated arrangements of electrical machines and power electronics converters are described. One such arrangement comprises: an electrical machine comprising one or more windings; a power electronics converter arranged to supply current to or receive current from the one or more windings of the electrical machine; a magnetocaloric effect (MCE) material in thermal contact with the power electronics converter; and a heat sink for removing heat from the MCE material. The MCE material is arranged in proximity to the one or more windings of the electrical machine whereby, in use, stray magnetic flux from the windings of the electrical machine passes through the MCE material and activates the MCE material. The repeated application and removal of the stray flux during normal operation of the electrical machine creates cycles of magnetic refrigeration, which removes heat from the power electronics converter.
